About 6 months ago now, i quit my **** debt collecting job and bought a 1 way ticket to Thailand, ask me anything.
I'm in Cambodia now and 4 days ago i got lost in the beautiful Island of Koh Rong's jungle and wrote a little story about it.
Many lols, give it a read: http://t00m0d.blogspot.com

It doesn't appeal to me
It's a lot easier than you think, a 1 way ticket is about £280. A meal is £1, and jobs are everywhere if you have anys skills, such as English as your first language
I was King of Lamai, especially BillaBong bar. If you didnt go to Lamai in Samui, u did it wrong.
I walked alone in the jungle 3 days ago and wrote a story about it, see O.P*

I've been living in nice hotels, i've stayed in a few un-hygienic rooms only a handful of times, i would dis-associate myself from being a backpacker as the piss the **** out of me, well most of them.
Transport from city to city, has its difference in price due to distance, and how much of a scammin kunt ur driver is trying to be, city to city, £2 from Bangkok to Pattaya for example, i flew to Cambodia for £60
I recommended you do this ****..
Bangkok, Chaing mai, Krabi, Phuket, Hua hin, Cha-am, Petchaburi, Bangkok again to pattayato Phuket, then samui, then phuket again, then cha am, then petchaburi, then bangkok to fly to cambodia, fk that was long i think thats been my path.
Teaching English in Korea is the best paid place to teach English, the paper is sweet, you need a good degree to pull most paper though.
Reason for leaving, i was bored of my life, just broke up with my girlfriend (pre planned to do it whilst was with her), worked in a Thai restaurant when i was 17, decided there's no possible way this food can be beaten, yellow fever, and beautiful nature. And so much more
Most popular job oppourtunites are teaching English, but if you're not a backpacker, and you mingle with the Thai's who are beautiful people, different doors open, its who you know sometimes man.
I'll return home, for a few family members.
Im 23*

It's a great feeling, you got ur shyt and u get on the plane alone, dont be scared man, you're brain will adjust quick
It's something that was commented on, and a narcissistic mind would say it helped, but they commented on my shoes, nose, eye lashes
I havent lifted for 6 months and there's no change in attention, some working girls shout "HEYYYYY SEXY MAN" i've thought they were talking to me, but soon noticed they were shoutin to the 70 year old bloke behind me, because they know hes got the money.
But Uranus does.
I took a hating to backpackers man and i didnt go to koh phangan, but ive promised to go with someone when im back
Phi Phi is off the nut! so beautiful and yea man, u know if i was female there would have been so many rape charges id have filed.*

You can get a Tourist visa from a Thai embassy in your country, it gives you 2 months, then you go to the Thai immigration in Thailand after ur 2 months is up, pay them £20 and you get another month.
When that runs out you have to hop borders, to Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, cross the pretend fking line, walk back through it and you have another month.
Its the most annoying thing about being here as a traveller, but if you work with a good company or the government, you'll be given a year*

I love Thailand, why have you been 3 times if you didnt like it?
You're been naive man, the place is beautiful, the people are happy. Which Asians don't you like? Asia is too big to say you dislike them.
I'll post some pics, i'd love to go to Canada, especially for the harsh winters.
As you can see, im in expert with photos.
How to make larger?*

Your parents watch too much news man, martial law ended a month ago, all that happened was everything closed at 10pm and i saw around 3 soldiers and i was in Bangkok the day it began.
Although on the lead up, a few thai blokes wouldnt drive me to certain places because they'd had people throwing bombs at parliamentary buildings*
